Added two tables and system preference to support
a new patron alternate ID and attributes feature.
A patron attribute (or extended patron attribute) is an
additional piece of information associated with a patron
record. Each attribute has a type that specifies
whether the attribute is repeatable, can serve as
a unique identifier, can take a password, and
whether it can be used to search for patron records
in the staff interface.
The list of attribute types is controlled by the
superlibrarian. Once an attribute type is defined,
values for that attribute can be added to the patron record
via the staff interface or the batch patron import.
Two uses of extended attributes are:
- defining additional unique identifiers, such as
a campus student ID number, a library staff
HR number, and so on. These IDs can be used
for searching or matching and overlaying records
during a batch import.
- additional statistical categories. For example,
a library could define an attribute type for
tracking the academic major of a student patron.
Any number of attributes of this sort could be
defined.
The extended attributes feature is completely optional. If
the new syspref, ExtendPatronAttributes, is OFF, the patron
attributes tables will be ignored; it will not be possible
to display, edit, search for, or match on extended
attributes.
The tables are:
[1] borrower_attribute_types - store attribute types
defined by the administrator.
- code
- description
- repeatable (whether a patron record can have
more than value of a given attribute type)
- unique_id (whether values of this type
must be unique within the database)
- opac_display (whether values of this type
can display in the patron details page in the OPAC)
- staff_searchable (whether values of this type
can be used to retrieve patron records in circulation)
- password_allowed (if set, staff patron editor will
allow a password to be associated with a value; this
is mostly a hook for functionality to be implemented
in the future.
- authorised_value_category (code of an authorised_value
category. If one is specified, the staff patron
editor will use a dropdown for setting values of this type)
[2] borrower_attributes - the actual attributes.
- code (attribute type code, FK)
- borrowernumber (link to patron, FK)
- attribute (the value)
- password (password associated with value)

Adjustments to updatedatabase.pl to help ensure that a
DB upgraded from 2.2.9, 3.0-alpha, or 3.0-beta has a schema
identical to a fresh installation.
The changes to the following columns and indexes are to
default values, field widths, position relative to other
columns or index names.
virtualshelfcontents.biblionumber
virtualshelfcontents_ibfk_1 (virtualshelfcontents)
shelfcontents_ibfk_2 (virtualshelfcontents)
sessions.id
deletedbiblioitems.marc
branchcategories.categorycode
branchrelations.categorycode
items.damaged
deleteditems.notforloan

subscription.weeklength
serialidx (serialitems)
items.more_subfields_xml
z3950servers.type
deleteditems.more_subfields_xml
opac_news.lang
labels_conf.formatstring
The following missing columns were added:
deletedbiblioitems.marcxml
deleteditems.itype
The 080 DB rev is specifically for syncing the schema
for users of 3.0-alpha, 3.0-beta, and 3.0-beta2, and should
be a no-op for anybody who has followed git HEAD for
the past few months:
subscription.monthlength
deleteditems.marc
aqbooksellers.name
NOTE: this patch does not handle the case of syncing
the DB of a developer or user who has been following
git HEAD since before 3.0-alpha.

Removed the categorytable, mediatypetable, and subcategorytable
tables. These three tables appear to be from an incomplete
patch from pre-git that defined these tables to implement
additional search limits, and are not present in the 2.2.9
package. In 3.0, these tables did nothing - the only code that
referred to them are incomplete admin editors that lack HTML
templates and are not referred to anywhere.
The updatedatabase.pl logic to remove these tables is conservative;
the tables are dropped only if they exist and are all empty. Effectively,
this means that they'll be dropped if you've been running a fresh install
of 3.0 from git or the alphas or betas; if you've upgraded your database
from 2.2.9, these tables likely weren't in your database to begin with.

Enhanced the ability of catalogers to specify how
bib and item records should be added, replaced, or
ignored during a staging import.
When an import batch of bib records is staged and commit,
the user can now explicitly specify what should occur
when an incoming bib record has, or does not have, a match
with a record already in the database. The options are:
if match found (overlay_action):
create_new (just add the incoming record)
replace (replace the matched record with the incoming one)
use_template (option not implemented)
ignore (do nothing with the incoming bib; however, the
items attached to it may still be processed
based on the item action)
if no match is found (nomatch_action):
create_new (just add the incoming record)
ignore (do nothing with the incoming bib; in this
case, any items attached to it will be
ignored since there will be nothing to
attach them to)
The following options for handling items embedded in the
bib record are now available:
always_add (add the items to the new or replaced bib)
add_only_if_match (add the items only if the incoming bib
matches an existing bib)
add_only_if_add (add the items only if the incoming bib
does *not* match an existing bib)
ignore (ignore the items entirely)
With these changes, it is now possible to support the following use cases:
[1] A library joining an existing Koha database wishes to add their
items to existing bib records if they match, but does not want
to overlay the bib records themselves.
[2] A library wants to load a file of records, but only handle
the new ones, not ones that are already in the database.
[3] A library wants to load a file of records, but only
handle the ones that match existing records (e.g., if
the records are coming back from an authority control vendor).
Documentation changes:
* See description above; also, screenshots of the 'stage MARC records
for import' and 'manage staged MARC records' should be updated.
Test cases:
* Added test cases to exercise staging and committing import batches.
UI changes:
* The pages for staging and managing import batches now have
controls for setting the overlay action, action if no match,
and item action separately.
* in the manage import batch tool, user is notified when they
change overlay action, no-match action, and item action
* HTML for manage import batch tool now uses fieldsets
Database changes (DB rev 076):
* added import_batches.item_action
* added import_batches.nomatch_action
* added 'ignore' as a valid value for import_batches.overlay_action
* added 'ignored' as a valid value for import_records.status
* added 'status' as a valid value for import_items.status
API changes:
* new accessor routines for C4::ImportBatch
GetImportBatchNoMatchAction
SetImportBatchNoMatchAction
GetImportBatchItemAction
SetImportBatchItemAction
* new internal functions for C4::ImportBatch to
determine how a given bib and item are to be
processed, based on overlay_action, nomatch_action,
and item_action:
_get_commit_action
_get_revert_action

This patch adds the ability to associate icon images with authorized values.
They're not displayed anywhere yet, though. There's also a database update
in here. I took version "3.00.00.075", but I can change that later if it gets
taken before I commit these patches.
DOCUMENTATION CHANGES: When you add or edit authorized values, you can now
associate image icons with them. These icons come from the same icon sets
that you can have with your itemtypes, such as media type. They don't show
up anywhere yet, but that's coming. Keep an eye on

First big commit in a project to add more granular
staff user permissions to Koha.
* Created two new database tables
permissions:
stores a list of defined permissions; each
permission is to be interpreted as a child
of a top-level permission defined in the
existing user flags. For example, Tools (bit 13)
now has a separate sub-permission for each
individual tool.
The columns are
module_bit = FK referencing userflags.bit
code = code, e.g., import_patrons
description = e.g., "Import patron data"
user_permissions:
stores a list of the specific permissions that
a staff user actually has. For example, if
staff user 123 has only the 'import_patrons' subpermission
of 'Tools' (module_bit = 13), that would be represented
by having (123, 13, 'import_patrons' in user_permissions.
user_permissions and borrowers.flags are now interpreted
as follows (assuming the CheckSpecificUserPermissions syspref
is ON):
* If the appropriate bit (e.g., bit 13 for Tools) is set
in borrowers.flags, the staff user can access all
Tools functions. There should be no rows in user_permissions
for that staff user and userflag bit combination.
* If the bit is not set in borrowers.flags, but one or
more rows are present in user_permissions for that
staff user and bit combination, the staff user can
access the specified sub-functions.
* If the bit is not set in borrower.flags and there are
no rows in user_permissions for that staff user and
bit combination, the user cannot access any of the functions.
Note that this means that if a staff user can access all
functions for a module (because the bit is set in borrowers.flags),
the user will automatically be able access any new subfunctions
added to permissions by a database update.
The columns are:
borrowernumber = FK referencing borrowers.borrowernumber
module_bit, code = FK referencing permissions
* Added a new system preference, CheckSpecificUserPermissions
If this system preference is ON, staff users can be assigned
specific permissions which will be respected during
authorization checks. If this system preference is OFF, the
current userflags semantics will continue to apply.
* Defined sub-permissions for Tools. The list of specific
tools permissions is now:
edit_news Write news for the OPAC and staff interfaces
label_creator Create printable labels and barcodes from catalog and patron data
edit_calendar Define days when the library is closed
moderate_comments Moderate patron comments
edit_notices Define notices
edit_notice_status_triggers Set notice/status triggers for overdue items
view_system_logs Browse the system logs
inventory Perform inventory (stocktaking) of your catalogue
stage_marc_import Stage MARC records into the reservoir
manage_staged_marc Manage staged MARC records, including completing and reversing imports
export_catalog Export bibliographic and holdings data
import_patrons Import patron data
delete_anonymize_patrons Delete old borrowers and anonymize circulation history (deletes borrower reading history)

As announced this past February, Amazon.com will no longer be
accepting web services requests to Amazon E-Commerce Service
(Amazon ECS) version 3.0 beginning on March 31, 2008.
This patch upgrades to Amazon.com's Associates Web Service 4.0
for the following components:
1. Amazon.com Locale support for: Canada, Germany, France, Japan,
UK, and US (see the new syspref called AmazonLocale)
2. Jacket Covers
3. Editorial Reviews
4. Customer Reviews
5. Amazon.com Similar Items
The following changes MUST be made to continue using Amazon.com
content:
1. Delete the system preference: AmazonDevKey (AmazonDevKeys used
with AmazonECS 3.0 are no longer valid)
2. Add the system preferences: AmazonLocale, AWSAccessKeyID
NOTE: steps 1, 2 are done by the web installer
3. Verify your AWSAccessKeyID:
You may already have an Access Key ID. You can access your Access
Key ID by going to http://aws.amazon.com, pointing to Your Web
Services Account, then clicking View Access Key Identifiers.
Depending on when you signed up for ECS 3.0, you may need to
re-register for an AWS account, which includes an Access Key ID.
4. Enter your AWSAccessKeyID in the Koha syspref called
AWSAccessKeyID

The new tables have the same structure and constraints
as the tables they archive with the following exceptions:
* borrowernumber and biblionumber in old_reserves can be
NULL
* the FK constraints (e.g., for itemnumber) on old_reserves
set the child column to NULL if the parent row is deleted
instead of deleting the child row.
* there is no FK constraint on old_issues.branchcode, allowing
a branch to be deleted without changing archived requests.

* GetMemberIssuesAndFines (C4::Members) now uses bind variables

As a consequence, the items table now remains authoritative
for all item information: any subfields not explicitly mapped
in the framework are still stored.
In addition, the additional unlinked subfields are now retained
during a call to ModItem.
Two additional points of note:
* an upgrade script from 2.2 and earlier 3.0 instllations is needed
to populate items.marc_subfields_xml; I am working on this.
* A behavour of bulkmarcimport.pl has now changed; any item subfields
not explicitly mapped to a Koha items field were dropped; they are
now retained and are stored in items.more_subfields_xml. This can
affect data migrations.

Most of this commit by Joshua Ferraro.
updatedatabase changes by Galen Charlton.
Major changes:
This commit includes a lot of fairly major changes
to Koha's Biblio handling, largest is the addition
and deletion of several columns in the biblioitems,
items tables, as well as cleanup of deletedbiblioitems,
deleteditems tables. Some of the changes are simple
cleanup, but most have to do with improvements to
storage of call numbers in Koha.
Also, I had to clean up the _koha_* routines quite a
lot to make them work -- there was lots of data just
being lost because columns weren't being updated.
I'm still not completely convinced that the items
table is being treated as authoritative for items
data, investigating further.
DB Changes (updated in kohastructure.sql and in
updatedatabases):
ADDED:
biblioitems.cn_source ( auth value, CN_SOURCE, stores the source of the
call number: DDC, LCC, NLM, etc.)
biblioitems.cn_class ( plugin, marc21_callnumber.pl, helps fill in
the rest of the biblio-level fields)
biblioitems.cn_item
biblioitems.cn_suffix
biblioitems.cn_sort ( for zebra sorting, stored as a decimal number)
biblioitems.totalissues ( for counting the total times issued )
items.cn_source ( auth value, CN_SOURCE, stores DDC, LCC, NLM, etc.)
items.itemcallnumber ( plugin, marc21_itemcallnumber.pl, helps fill in
the itemcallnumber based on the record data )
items.cn_sort ( for zebra sorting, stored as a decimal number)
items.ccode ( auth value, CCODE, stores the Collection Code
of the item, can be used as call number prefix
by some libraries )
items.uri
items.materials
items.damaged
DELETED:
items.itype
items.cutterextra
biblioitems.classification
biblioitems.subclass
biblioitems.dewey
biblioitems.lcsort
biblioitems.lccn
biblioitems.ccode
